“Today will be the third time since January that the House has passed an emergency disaster package, the third time we have advanced relief and recovery assistance for the people--from those in Florida and Puerto Rico to those in California and the Carolinas, in Georgia and in communities all across America--trying to rebuild their lives and return to normal.
